Aims of the Graduate School
The graduate school started in April 1998 and now is in the
second phase (April 2001 - March 2004). An important aim of the
graduate school is to complete doctoral dissertations with 3
years.
The design of efficient algorithms is a central and
challenginging problem in mathematics, computer science and
engineering. Today many problems in real-world applications can
only be solved with algorithms of nearly optimal time and space
complexity. Numerical simulation replaces more and more
experimental tests, for example the computation of
electromagnetic fields in biological tissue or the destruction
free ultrasound investigation of mechanical devices.
In cooperation of mathematicians, computer scientists and
engineers we seek for the design of efficient algorihtms based on
a structural understanding for interesting problems in the
following research areas:
- Partial differential equations (elliptic, hyperbolic,
Navier-Stokes), combinatorial optimization, geometry, computer
vision and robotics
- Adaptivity in numerical analysis and robotics
- Multiscaleanalysis, image and signal processing
(e.g. multidimensional wavelets, filter banks, image
reconstruction)
- Macro- and Microstructures
- Non-linear control
-Parallel algorithms in numerical analysis, optimization and
circuit simulation.
